shooting Into Peoples Houses.

About midnight last night seven pistol
shots were fired near Mckinney avenue, in
the vicinity Of ex.policeman Meeley's resi-
dence. The people in the neighborbood
thought it must be an alarm Of fire and
tumbled out of their beds at lively rate.
Mr.. Meeley and family were startled by n
pistol ball entering their house, but for
tunately no one was hurt. When tho
peighbors got out they could see or hear
nothing. What the occasion for it was is
not known, unless II was some fellow from
malicious intent fired his pistol to disturb
and frighten he people. Such man ought
to b. caught and severely punished. The
shot that entered Mr.. Meeley's house might
have struck and killed one OF the family.

FaribauIt Chosen by the EXecu-

ton.
The state executive board of the
Young Mems Christian association held
meeting in the rooms of the ST. Paul
association last evening. There were
present Thomas Cochran, Jr., of st.
Paul, chairman; j. R.Hague, secretary;
III. f. Williams, state secretary; c. E.
Dyer, of Minneapolis, treasurer; MeSsrs.

field; NJ. b. Critchett and J. III. Elliott,
of Minneapolis, and d. G. Hill of Red
Wing.
Reports were presented by the state
secretary and also by his assistant.
These reports are very satisfactory, es
pecially in financial way, and show
that out of the $500 needed by the
state board all but about 5000 has been
raised. Three years ago there were but
seven associations and branches in
Minnesota and Dakota, and but seven
general secretaries and paid assistants.
The annual expenses were then S11, 164
and the membership numbered lis.
At the present time there are forty-tWo
working associations and tWenty-three
paid agents. The total membership is
now over 5000 and the annual expenses
about $4,000.
The committee decided upon Fari-
bault as the place for the next annual
convention, which will be held from
Oct. 81 to 80 inclusive. A move was
taken in the matter of sending an asso-
citation secretary as missionary to
some heather land, and the secretary
was instructed to prepare. a circular
setting forth the objects of the move.
l.. D. Wishard, the college secretary,

BOGUS BUTTER CASES.
Judge Wilkin Overrules the De-

tOns
Some time ago the state, by the at

B. l. Brayton, commission merchant,
to have the court declare forfeiture of
certain packages of oleomargarine, as
alleged, which the defendant had eX-

state law. There were 1900 pounds,
amounting to $50, and the seizure was
made last March. Mr.. Brayton, through
his attorney, filed demurrer. Judge
Wilkin has now Overruled the demurrer,
